If you get an OBD1 engine and want to use your OBD2 ECU, you have to rewire the harness from withing the engine compartment to run the Engine. It is that simple.

If you want to use an OBD1 ECU, make sure you get an OBD1 harness with your engine. Then you have to interface (rewire) the OBD1 harness to the car's harness.

Once you have changed the ECU, it won't have the security that your Lude has. Meaning the starter disable feature of your key would not work anymore.
